The First Dress

I finished Thalia’s dress last night. It didn’t take me that long once I finally started sewing it together. It came out pretty much perfectly. So I’m all proud. The details even turned out perfect. And she looks adorable in it. So does Java…



Brown Rice Cereal

Last night Thalia had her first taste of real food. We gave her some brown rice cereal. At first, she didn’t know what to do with it. But after couple of minutes of letting her taste it, she started leaning toward the spoon and wanting more. Success! Make sure to check out Thalia’s site to [...]

Lists

I was reading this entry from Loobylu talking about how there are two kinds of people in the world… those who make lists and those who don’t. I’ve read about this before, so it’s nothing new. But I noticed something funny. I am a list maker. I always have been. I inherited it from my [...]



Halloween 2008

We had fun at our Halloween/Rock Band party… AL especially. Here he is as Edward Plungerhands: And here are me and Thalia as a robber with a bag of money! Thalia is 18 weeks old now and I haven’t made an album in a few weeks. So here’s a new one. As always, I’ve posted [...]



Crazy High Schooler

We had fun at the Mommy group yesterday. Boys were crazy, girls were angels, cookies were spilled all over the floor, screaming and a bit of blood from an upper lip summarize our day. It’s amazing how when it comes to children, I’ve gone from an indifferent girl to an adoring mother. I love kids! [...]



Stuff and a Dress

Yesterday, Thalia had her doctor appointment and is doing great. We’re not surprised. Tomorrow is another Mommy group get-together. Should be fun. My pregnant friend, Michelle, is hosting and is about to pop! The baby is due in a couple weeks, so I’m hoping this won’t put any stress on her. Friday is our Rock [...]



Baby Weight

I know this is a weird complaint, but I’ve just discovered that I am losing too much weight since having Thalia. The breastfeeding is burning so many calories a day, and I can’t keep up. I can’t just start pigging out. I have a tendency to feel full with smaller portions, and these days, I [...]



Dizzying

Thalia does not stay still in her crib. Oh no… she does a full 360 before she conks out.



Tired Today

I’m sooooooooooo tired today. Thalia is doing alright learning how to sleep in her own crib. She still wakes up twice a night to be fed. But she goes right back to sleep, so it’s not a huge problem. Sometimes she even lets me sleep in a little bit. But today I am soooooooooo tired. [...]
